Pros
My time at TASC was everything I could have asked for. I was onboarded with care, consulted often about things I'd like to work on or try during my time, and always felt genuinely comfortable asking many, many questions. The environment in the office is very conducive to learning and growing quickly. There is a culture of mentorship and no team member ever turned up their nose at grabbing coffee or putting time on the calendar to chat about a client or answer questions. I feel that I have made the most of my time at TASC because the environment was so incredibly conducive to growth.
Also appreciated management's investment in professional development and frequent TASC-funded lunches and retreats, which, despite being an intern, I was never excluded from.
Cons
None really! I feel that the time is what you make it. In a perfect world, the compensation would be higher, but it's par for the course for other internships at boutique firms.
